@AndrewAAGamer Appreciate your patience. War on.
Submerge sub or fight?
L24: Arthur Bomber Harris vs Farmboy (A+41) OOB
-
@Arthur-Bomber-Harris I’m sure I will scramble but for the casualties I will want to see the dice and the move in full.
-
@farmboy no problem. Will do round by round. If my subs get 1 hit on round 1, lose your sub?
-
@Arthur-Bomber-Harris my sub will roll first so it probably depends on whether I get a hit. I also have the option of submerge too. Its better for me I think to see the full turn (other combats and the buy) before deciding on any of this. And in about 45 min to an 1 hour I will be in a position to respond fairly quickly once things start.
-
@farmboy please confirm the scramble and if the American sub fights turn 1.

I did a practice fight without the dice server and I got absolutely destroyed in most of these battles. Let’s see if I can do better when it counts.
-
@Arthur-Bomber-Harris scramble and sub fights round 1. I’ll do this round by round
-
no need for turn by turn, my units had great luck on turn 1…

Not sure if I will regret abandoning Manchuria…

@Arthur-Bomber-Harris Do you recall what happened in the Philippines? There is a weird explanation in the summary as no dice appear to be rolled. I defended only with bases but lost the anzac units that were there. The summary is missing the dice and seems to suggest they weren’t necessary. And because the dice are slow in coming I can’t confirm from the dice roller.
-
@farmboy hmmm, I don’t remember. How do you want to resolve this?
-
@Arthur-Bomber-Harris its going to take me a little while to figure out this move. So we have some time. I’ve gotten the convoy rolls already but not hte combat from the Japan turn. I expect that over the next day we should see more rolls come in so hopefully those come in too. If we don’t see rolls for Philippines than I think its best to roll it in the dice roller here.
If you definitively remembered the rolling happen, I would just leave it, but the summary text seems to suggest a glitch.
-
@farmboy i was clicking through everything on screen and don’t remember.
If you want to do it on the forum, lose an infantry first and then a plane if I take a second casualty.
-
@Arthur-Bomber-Harris I’ll wait to see if it comes up in teh dice first. I won’t be able to decide on my turn in any case. Hopefully tomorrow morning we will see. I don’t want to roll here if it is moot.
-
@farmboy sounds fair.
-
@Arthur-Bomber-Harris I think most if not all of the dice just came in (are you seeing them too? I don’t see philippines yet among them. Still will wait until at least morning but that makes me think it was some weird glitch.
-
I just tried the dice bot to see. I thought I was doing it here but it was in this topic here https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/39917/when-you-need-a-topic-to-use-the-dicebot-do-it-here?_=1719375271935
you will see that you got the hits you needed and I missed.
-
@farmboy thanks for the rolls! That was a crazy lucky Japan turn.
